Residents of a Derby suburb are upset about a hair salon opening on their street, one saying that the small business will ruin the area.

Samantha Stokes set up the salon in her garage on Quarn Drive, in Allestree in March 2020, at the start of the pandemic when forced to downsize and now wants to make the move permanent.

But her neighbours are unhappy, saying that the salon would mean increased noise levels, more traffic and more footfall, and arguing that the city centre is a better place for a salon.
Locals are "shocked" by the suggested opening hours, which under council plans would be 10am - 6pm on Monday to Friday, and 9am - 5pm on Saturdays.

The message has caused quite a stir on social media.

Many have dubbed it as “hilarious”, with several people applauding the individual who spray-painted the road.

:D

But there are those who have raised concerns about the fact the crude words are situated right outside a nursery and described the perpetrator as “irresponsible”.

Not sure nursery age kids are likely to get it, TBH.
 
This made me smile. :D

GIANT models of The Simpsons were rescued by the emergency services after being reported stolen.

Firefighters were spotted on Brighton Road climbing up a ladder to reach Homer and Marge. Police were also called to the scene - with onlookers applauding the unusual rescue effort.

He told the Argus: "We were just having breakfast and the police arrived and started pointing up.

"They waited for about ten minutes before the fire brigade turned up and started taking all the figures down.

"Everyone was cheering - it was quite amusing!

"It was pretty hilarious - certainly not the sort of thing you see every day."

I certainly would have joined in the cheering. :D
